Allergic contact dermatitis in children.

Allergic contact dermatitis accounts for up to 20% of all dermatitis in childhood. The major sources of contact allergy in childhood are metals, shoes, preservatives, and plants. There is considerable variability from region to region and country to country in the prevalence and causes of contact dermatitis in childhood. We suggest that patch testing be done more frequently in evaluating dermatitis in children. Topical or systemic glucocorticosteroids and allergen avoidance are the mainstays of therapy in childhood.

Neurological manifestations of angioedema. Report of two cases and review of the literature.

Two children had recurrent neurological symptoms associated with angioedema. Extensive clinical and laboratory investigations failed to reveal a separate cause for the neurological changes. Only 19 prior cases of this association have been reported. Seizures and headaches are the most common symptoms, but a wide variety of focal and generalized deficits may occur. The release of vasoactive substances such as histamine, serotonin, and prostaglandins, which are also putative neurotransmitters, is postulated to be the cause of the cerebral symptoms.

Associative factors and the development of pecking in the ring dove.

In these studies, descriptive information on the diet and feeding behavior of ring dove squab is considered in the context of an analysis of the mechanisms underlying the development of eating. Experiment I shows that squab begin to peck at grain around Day 13 and both the rate and efficiency of pecking increase through Day 21 when the squab are weaned. Experiment II shows that squab reared without seed in their home cage do not develop normal levels of pecking unless exposure to seed is followed in close temporal proximity by interaction with parents. It is concluded that an association between some aspect of squab's interaction with seed and a parentally provided unconditioned stimulus is sufficient for normal pecking to develop. The nature of these associations and their contribution to the ontogeny of independent feeding are discussed.
